Here are some songs and/or rhymes we might do in storytime:

Song: Go Away, Scary Monster
Go away, scary monster, go away. GO AWAY!
Go away, scary monster, go away. GO AWAY!
Go away, scary monster.
Go away, scary monster.
Go away, scary monster, go away. GO AWAY!

Song: Monsters Stomp Around the House (Tune: Ants Go Marching)
The monsters stomp around the house, hurrah hurrah
The monsters stomp around the house, hurrah hurrah
The monsters stomp around the house,
They sing, and shout, and stomp about,
And they make a lot of noise
Around the house, boom boom boom

Verses: run… jump… dance… sleep…

Song: Five Little Monsters Jumping on the Bed (MINOR KEY)
Five little monsters jumping on the bed,
One fell off and bumped her head,
Mummy called the doctor and the doctor said,
“No more monsters jumping bed!”

Count down until no more monsters jumping on the bed

See you there!
